For as long as he can remember, Justin Bello has been a lover of adventure stories. As a writer, he likes to create morally ambiguous worlds full of characters who struggle to fight for good even when faced with seemingly insurmountable evil. He enjoys reading, writing, drawing, tabletop role-playing games, and more hobbies than he realistically has time for. A full-time English teacher, he lives in Pittsburgh with his wife, Dominique, and three children. The Gift of the Guardians is his first novel.
